Yes, regarding salt, I switched to Morton Lite Salt, which is part REAL salt and part fake chemical salt. That reduces salt intake by HALF.
I am also careful to buy sugar free peanut butter, sugar free canned yams, and NO SODIUM or low sodium canned veggies. I use Splenda instead of sugar at home, and if I am going to make sweet cornbread or custard, I sweeten the recipe with Splenda.
I take ONE caffeine capsule a day, which is the equivalent of one cup of coffee, AND I am taking Spike Protein Detox by Femetra, which contains a RAFT of herbal and natural anti-inflammatories, including Natokinase, which MILDLY lowers blood pressure.
My blood pressure was actually TOO low when they needed to find a vein at my MRI recently, so be aware that can happen.

It seems I "need" caffeine to function.
But.... I no longer can drink Cola based sodas (Coke Zero) due to osteoporosis...
And so, I too have come to love coffee.... But more than one tall cup of coffee gives me the "Jitters"....
I think I have finally found a solution..... I purchased a bag of something called CHICORY ROOT. (From Amazon)
It is a very fined ground powder that is claimed to be a caffeine free coffee substitute. And honestly...it does taste just like coffee!
So, the solution that has solved my "jitters" issue and still allows me to have my two tall cups of coffee in the morning is to mix 1/2 Chicory root with 1/2 (actual) coffee....

It's not high blood pressure just because your monitor says so. Just live right and healthy. If you kick the bucket at 40, fuck it. It's better than getting sucked into the healthcare system and live till 90.
